Look, new shelf!
The Fallacy of Israel - M. Aziz

See that shelf that says antisemitic?   That's because, author, you can't put your hands up, say you're a friend of the Jews, and that we as a people have a right to exist, then go on making antisemitic arguments about why Israel shouldn't exist. 

 

Let's start with you staying in England despite not being biologically suited to the environs according to your own argument, and then stubbornly staying there while the Jews have to go.   And, dude, I'm sorry about your British guilt, but that's not Israel's fault.  Or the fault of the Jews. 

 

"As one of the last overhangs of the British Empire colonial project we can also reasonably breathe a sigh of relief in believing that Israel will be the last index entry on injustices done to serve imperial needs through a fallacy."

 

Sorry, buddy, but the Jews don't have to pay for your guilt.   Or your country's guilt.   Ironic since he says no one else should pay for what should be Israel's guilty actions, which he has yet to prove.   (And seeing as he uses what is, quite frankly, a disgusting quote by an Israeli professor saying that one should rape the wives of terrorists to cow them, and then says, 'see, see, they believe that Muslim women should be raped!'...  Um, no, one does, and you can't warp his words to mean all Muslim women, which is what you did in an attempt to incite rage against Jews.   Ironic since he claims one should be held to his own words, and since he gets his panties in a bunch over a mistranslated world by someone who wants to eradicate Israel.   But, yeah, sure you're such a great ally to Jews.)

 

Or, he says, the UK wanted to refuse re-entry to its own citizens if they aided ISIS, or something.   And then says we should do the same to those who support Israel because it was founded on terrorism and throwing out the Palestinians.   And here's where he could have gained sympathy and lost it.   So, the founding of Israel?   And the way it was handled?   Kinda sucked.   But how can you compare what you believe was a terrorist action, and holding the descendants responsible for that, to actual terrorists committing terrorism right now?

 

And showing he knows how to make an airtight argument, he implores everyone, especially the US to do the same and denounce those who support Israel because the land was taken over.   

 

So... I'm assuming he totally knows that the US was occupied before the white man came here, right?   Right?

 

How can the US condemn taking over land when they did the same thing?   Or let's put it this way, if we say that aiding a country that was colonized is terrorism, aren't we calling ourselves terrorists?   Yeah, way to make your point. 

 

Ugh.   I can't even with this.   Pure drivel, by someone who admits he's biased, and does nothing to moderate that bias at all.   

 

Or, y'know, fuck this book. 

 

 

I also don't always burn book.  Actually never have.   But never before in my life have I wanted to burn a book as much as I've wanted to burn this one. 

 

And I read Real, y'all. 

 

ETA: Also, for the love of Primus, finish an argument!   Don't leave it hanging or move onto a new topic all of a sudden.   Yikes.
